Giants General Manager Bobby Evans steps down

SAN FRANCISCO (KTVU) - The search for a new San Francisco Giants' general manager is on. The team announced on Monday, Senior Vice President and General Manager Bobby Evans will step down from his duties effective immediately.

“I want to thank Bobby for his tireless work on behalf of the Giants. He played an important role in our team’s success throughout his tenure, which includes three World Series championships, four NL pennants and eight playoff appearances,” said Giants President and CEO Larry M. Baer.

Evans was thanked for his contributions over the past 25 years with the organization.

The team's standings in the National League has plummeted. San Francisco Chronicle reported Evans was signed through 2019, but that wasn't enough to outweigh this losing season.
